Global Social Justice is an initiative aimed at producing, collecting and distributing information about global social development and redistribution. Our aim is to promote global social justice that goes beyond poverty reduction and can tackle global inequality. It will imply to re-think development, solidarity and rights.

Today’s world has unsustainable income inequalities and globalization is thriving on them. They threaten political and social stability and are barriers to the free movement of peoples. Solutions will involve national as well as global responsibilities.

Social justice is a global public good for which the international community is responsible. It is a concept that can help to promote global income redistribution in a better way than the current development cooperation policies. Obviously, it is based on the Universal Declaration on Human Rights and the International Covenant for Economic, Social and Cultural rights, as well as the Right to Development.

We want to pay attention to all initiatives that can promote the emergence of a world where every human being not only has enough to eat, a roof over her head, education and health services, but also work, social protection and a healthy environment. It means that states should have the resources for implementing all necessary policies. Therefore, it is necessary to globalize solidarity.

We also want to pay attention to all new initiatives that go beyond traditional 'development' thinking and seek to achieve totally new policies and practices, such as the 'buen vivir' in Latin America.

Special attention will be paid to the issue of global taxes in order to organize a global redistribution of income.
